Welcome to room 67's website!  
     
     Our first trimester has flown by...time flies when you are on a 
wonderful journey, full of great educational adventures and challenges!    
    
     In reading, we are reading many classic picture books and novels.  When 
we return from track break, we will begin an extensive study of fairy tales, 
folktales, fables, and tall tales  
     
     We wrote our second of many friendly letters to our pen pal, Trucker 
Robert Costa, after we received our first postcards.  He will be sending us 
many postcards and letters from around the nation throughout the school year 
and we will write letters to him in return.
     
     We began learning cursive handwriting on Monday, August 31, 2009.  We 
have learned the proper formation of the lowercase letters and the capital 
letters.  We are now practicing all of our cursive letters while writing 
alliteration sentences.  
     A cursive letter chart was sent home the first week of school.  It is 
vital to practice at home.  Home practice will ensure the children's success 
of reading and writing cursive.
     
     Our fifth mathematics topic focuses on multiplication.  We took our 
challenge test on Tuesday, November 17, to determine which students will 
have their mathematics instruction differentiated.  A special thanks to those 
students who were up to the challenge.  Congratulations to Aaron, Alexis, 
Benjamin, Kenny, Preston, and Britannia.  They received 80% or higher on the 
challenge test and will have the opportunity to complete challenge 
work...work that focuses on the same mathematical concepts as class work, 
just at a higher level. 
     Prior to track break, a multiplication chart will be sent home to begin 
the memorization process.  Practice at home will enhance the immediate recall 
of multiplication facts and will improve the students' ability to master two 
digit multiplication and division.  
     
     Our first science unit is entitled, Structures of Life.  We will learn 
about plants and animals and their life cycles.
     
     In social studies, we began our Native Americans unit and will learn 
about the four major regions: Pacific Northwest, Southwest, Plains, and 
Eastern Woodlands.

The second annual Fall Festival was a resounding success!  Thanks to 
Mrs. Albright and Mrs. Plante for volunteering to work our classroom booth: 
The Pumpkin Patch.  Also, a special thanks to all the children that entered 
the In-N-Out Burger lunch with the teacher raffle.  Congratulations to 
Julienne V.  She will enjoy an In-N-Out Burger lunch with Mrs. Wolf.
